Ingredients You'll Need

• 4 cloves fresh garlic
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (plus extra for garnish)
• 1/3 cup coarse Kosher salt (for brine)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil
• 8 cups water
• Fresh cilantro for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the Brine

The secret to incredibly juicy grilled wings starts with a quick brine. This technique is especially useful when cooking chicken outdoors on a grill, as it helps prevent the meat from drying out.

1. Add 8 cups of water to a large bowl or container
2. Add 1/3 cup of coarse Kosher salt
3. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar
4. Stir the brine until the salt and sugar completely dissolve
5. Add chicken wings to the brine
6. Refrigerate for 30 minutes (use your RV's refrigerator to keep everything cold)

Grill the Wings

7. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F)
8. Remove wings from brine and pat completely dry with paper towels
9. Place wings in a large bowl or pan
10. Toss with 1 tablespoon of cooking oil
11. Grill wings with lid closed for 8 minutes on each side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F

Most modern RV rentals come equipped with outdoor grilling areas, making this recipe easy to prepare at any campsite.

Make the Garlic Parmesan Sauce

While the wings are grilling, prepare this rich and flavorful sauce that brings everything together.

12. Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat
13. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes)
14. Add 1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper
15. Add 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
16. Add 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese
17. Add 1 teaspoon of Kosher salt
18. Stir all ingredients together and remove from heat

Finish and Serve

19. Transfer grilled wings to a large mixing bowl
20. Pour the garlic parmesan sauce over the hot wings
21. Toss well to coat all wings evenly
22. Add 2 additional tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and mix
23. Plate the wings and garnish with extra Parmesan and fresh cilantro
24. Enjoy immediately while hot!
